On the contrary, Chu Yi smiled slightly. Compared to a young man like Lin Chong who had never experienced the evil in people's hearts, Chu Yi had seen what it means to be evil first, and what it means to be open and covert.
Regardless of Zhang Dun's character, everything Zhang Dun did was beneficial to the country and the people. If Chu Yi were in Zhang Dun's position, his methods would probably be a bit more ruthless than Zhang Dun's.
.
Zhang Dun deserved the title of one of the best in his generation for opening up new territories, managing the country and ensuring peace of the country. Unfortunately, no matter how talented he was, Zhang Dun stood on the opposite side of today's emperor when he was established. In one sentence:
King Duan was frivolous and could not rule the world, which ruined his future career.
That is to say, Zhang Dun has outstanding abilities. Although he has a bad reputation, his reputation as a virtuous person is even greater. Otherwise, he would not be so afraid today. In order to deal with Zhang Dun, people would be sent to secretly collect evidence of Zhang Dun's crimes.
Lin Chong noticed Chu Yi's expression and couldn't help but said: "Why is the admiral laughing? Doesn't the admiral think that Zhang Dun is a traitor?"
Chu Yi glanced at Lin Chong and chuckled: "The merits and demerits of right and wrong will be judged by future generations."
While speaking, Chu Yi said calmly: "As the saying goes, if the king wants his minister to die, the minister has to die. No matter what happens to Zhang Dun, if His Majesty is not happy, his fate is already destined to be miserable."
Lin Chong's eyes lit up and he said: "Such a traitor should be exiled thousands of miles away and never be recruited. Your Majesty can see the true face of a traitor and is worthy of being a holy king!"
Hearing what Chu Yi said, Chu Yi almost couldn't help laughing and looked at Lin Chong with a strange expression.
Lin Chong actually called Huizong a holy king, which made Chu Yi, who knew Lin Chong's miserable life, almost couldn't help laughing.
But this is normal. After all, Huizong did not have a bad reputation before he succeeded to the throne. During the period when he ascended the throne, his energy was mainly focused on how to take back the power from the Empress Dowager Xiang. He seemed to be a diligent man.
monarch.
In this way, it is normal for Lin Chong to regard Huizong as a holy king.
But Chu Yi knew very well that once Huizong gained power, surrounded by Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Tong Guan, Wang Fu and others, Huizong fell at an astonishing speed and became a famous mediocre master.
There was a sound of footsteps, and a young eunuch said to Chu Yi: "Admiral, there is a man outside the door claiming to be Xu Ning from the Golden Gun Squad, and he is here to report."
Chu Yi's eyes lit up and he said: "Bring them here!"
Soon, Xu Ning entered the study. Xu Ning glanced around and immediately spotted Chu Yi, who was in charge of the room.
Although he had never met Chu Yi, Xu Ning's heart tightened and he concluded that Chu Yi was the master of this place just from the demeanor Chu Yi showed invisible as he sat there.
Xu Ning, who was frightened by Chu Yi's momentum, took a deep breath and stepped forward to salute Chu Yi: "Xu Ning, my subordinate from the Golden Spear Squadron, is here to pay homage to the admiral!"
Chu Yi smiled and said to Xu Ning: "Teacher Xu, there is no need to be polite, get up and talk!"
Above the court, the status of a warrior was not high, so Xu Ning seemed very humble when facing Chu Yi.
Standing up, Xu Ning looked at Chu Yi secretly. If he was impressed by Chu Yi's magnanimity at the first glance when he entered the study, then when he looked at it again, Xu Ning couldn't help but reveal a bit of amazement in his eyes.
color.
It is true that Chu Yi's temperament is too outstanding and does not look like what a eunuch's chamberlain should have. If Chu Yi is a young master from an aristocratic family, I am afraid no one will doubt it.
Lin Chong couldn't help but look at Xu Ning at this moment. Lin Chong was very curious as to what was so different about Xu Ning that Chu Yi valued him so much that he personally sent someone to get him from the Golden Gun Class.
After entering Dongchang, Lin Chong realized that almost everyone in Dongchang was an eunuch of the inner court. Apart from him, he now had Xu Ning as his companion, which made Lin Chong have more respect for Xu Ning.
A bit of intimacy.
Lin Chong cupped his fists towards Xu Ning and saluted, "I'm here, Lin Chong, and I've met Teacher Xu."
Xu Ning glanced at Lin Chong, a bright light flashed in his eyes and said: "Could it be Zhou Tong and Zhou Tiju's disciple, Lin Chong!"
Lin Chong puffed up his chest and said, "It's just me."
There was a hint of envy in Xu Ning's eyes as he said: "Xu Ning has admired Zhou Tiju's name for a long time, and never thought that he would meet Tiju's disciple today. Xu Ning is so polite here."
As a martial artist, he naturally doesn't have that many tricks up his sleeve, so Lin Chong and Xu Ning hit it off right away.
Here Chu Yi is sitting there, his mind sinking into the sea of consciousness. In the sea of consciousness, above the altar of luck, the luck is vast, but Chu Yi can clearly feel it. As Xu Ning bows,
Under his sect, the luck on the altar of luck once again increased by hundreds of thousands.
Although the luck brought by Lin Chong is slightly less than that brought by Lin Chong, it is not the most important thing. What Chu Yi really values is the luck carried by the people in Liangshan.
You must know that both Lin Chong and Xu Ning are just subordinates to him. They are not sincerely loyal to him. Even so, it will increase his luck by hundreds of thousands. If one day he can get the two of them
If you are loyal to me, I'm afraid you will get more luck.
But soon Chu Yi frowned. People like Lin Chong and Xu Ning who had no bad deeds could be subdued by Chu Yi safely and used for his own purposes. However, for people like Wang Ying, a short-legged tiger who feeds on people's hearts,
The murderous Sun Erniang and Zhang Qing were the scum among the people. Chu Yi really couldn't pass the test in his heart to take these people under his command.
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Even if it is for luck, Chu will not do anything that goes against his heart."
After coming back to his senses, Xu Ning happened to look towards Chu Yi. Perhaps because of the exchange with Lin Chong, Xu Ning felt a bit of a sense of belonging to Dongchang. At least Chu Yi's expression was no longer the same as before.
With a sense of wariness and alienation.
Zhou Tong's title as the greatest grandmaster in the world is still very useful, and as Zhou Tong's disciple, Lin Chong is still listening to Dongchang, but the little emotion in Xu Ning's heart disappeared all of a sudden.
For a person like Chu Yi, you can probably figure out Xu Ning's thoughts just by looking at the changes in Xu Ning's expression.
Chu Yi could only be heard saying: "Xu Ning listens to the order!"
Xu Ning heard the sound and stepped forward to bow to Chu Yi and said: "My subordinate is here!"
Chu Yi looked at Xu Ning and said: "I have appointed you as the second stall owner of Dongchang, and you will be the commander of Dongchang Fanzi together with Lin Chong, the first stall owner."
When Dongchang was first established, although it was said that the main staff were internal servants, Dongchang recruited a group of capable people from the Imperial City Division, and these people became Dongchang's fans.
The preliminary structure of the entire Dongchang has been completed. Although the personnel cannot be compared with the Ming Dynasty Dongchang, it may not be long before the Dongchang becomes a behemoth under the control of Chu Yi.
A few months passed in a flash, and there seemed to be no movement from Chu Yi's side. The rumors that had been circulating in Bianjing City for a long time were gradually no longer mentioned.
The biggest news in the capital today is that Cai Jing is regarded as the emperor and the prime minister. Of course, Zhang Dun is still in charge of the court, but anyone who is not a fool can see that Zhang Dun is already in decline, and he may be given up by the emperor at some time.
Demoted.
Therefore, when Cai Jing became deputy prime minister, he was regarded as the future prime minister. Suddenly, there was a lot of traffic and endless traffic in front of Cai Jing's mansion.
On this day, a person came to visit Chu Yi, but it was Tong Guan, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Although Chu Yi and Tong Guan have not seen each other for many days, this does not mean that Chu Yi has not experienced changes in Liu Yi's court.
Tong Guan was indeed an extraordinary person, worthy of being the future prime minister. On Cai Jing's recommendation, he was appointed by the emperor to be the supervisor of the Northwest Army.
When Tong Guan met Chu Yi, he didn't put on any airs. The two of them did not belong to each other. In terms of power, Chu Yi was not weak, but Tong Guan was not bad either.
Chu Yi looked at Tong Guan and said with a smile: "The distinguished guest is here, the plum blossoms are shining brightly!"
Tong Guan shook his head and smiled. He looked at Chu Yi with a straight face and said, "Xian brother, I have received the official's order and will soon go to the northwest to supervise the army and preside over the affairs of the Qingtang Dynasty. Before leaving, I came here to say goodbye to my brother."
Chu Yi looked at Tong Guan, cupped his fists and saluted, saying: "I am so loved by Brother Tong, Chu Yi is ashamed."
After looking around, Tong Guan whispered: "Did my dear brother forget what he said in front of His Majesty?"
Chu Yi naturally knew what Tong Guan was talking about. It was obvious that he had not had any movement for more than a month, and some people were a little anxious.
Tong Guan and Cai Jing both fought and cooperated. This time Tong Guan was able to become the Northwest Supervisory Army, and Cai Jing played a great role in it. If Cai Jing wants to go further, the most important thing is to kill the Prime Minister on his head.
Zhang Dun was defeated.
However, Cai Jing was afraid of Zhang Dun's counterattack, so he asked Tong Guan to come and urge Chu Yi to carry out the plan of killing with a borrowed knife.
Chu Yi said with a smile: "How dare Chu forget it? Otherwise, how will Chu explain it to Your Majesty?"
With a look of doubt on his face, Tong Guan looked at Chu Yi and said, "Then why has my dear brother not made any movement so far? Don't you know that Your Majesty is waiting for my dear brother to attack Zhang Dun?"
Chu Yi pondered for a while, rubbed the jade ring between his fingers with one hand, nodded to Tong Guan and said: "Brother Tong, you should know that Zhang Dun acts arrogantly, but he doesn't have many handles. If you want to pull the ring at once
To defeat this person, you need to collect enough evidence."
Tong Guan raised his brows and said in a low voice: "As the saying goes, there is no need to accuse someone of any crime. What your Majesty wants is just the result. As for what kind of things Zhang Dun has done, is it important?"
Chu Yi couldn't help but smile and said: "So Chu knows it well."
After sending Tong Guan away, Lin Chong, who was standing next to Chu Yi, said: "This is a treacherous and sycophantic person!"
As he spoke, Lin Chong looked at Chu Yi and said, "The admiral is not really going to fabricate charges and frame him!"
Chu Yi smiled mysteriously at Lin Chong and said, "What do you think?"
Lin Chong's face was full of hesitation and confusion. In his opinion, Zhang Dun was a traitor and he hoped to bring him down. However, when he thought that they would use frame-up methods to bring down Zhang Dun, Lin Chong felt that Zhang Dun was a treacherous person.
It’s because you can’t pass the test in your heart.
